DVD/APPROX. 88 MINS/2006/USA R18+
A father wakes up wondering why his 9 year old son isn't already up watching his favorite morning cartoons, he soon finds him lying in bed foaming
at the mouth in a coma-like status. Quickly, he rushes him to the hospital where he then realizes his son is not the only child suffering from these
same symptoms, other parents are hysterically holding their children in their arms in the hospital’s hallways, screaming for help from the doctors
and nurses also. Suddenly, all of the children, at the same time, start having seizures. Forward to ten years later, a young man, Tom Russell
(James Van Der Beek), gets out of prison and heads home hoping to start a new life, but soon finds out the human race is facing extinction. All of
the children who were under 9 years of age are still in their unexplained comas, and the scientists, doctors and governments all over the world are
still trying to find a cure for this mysterious disease or what caused this to happen in the first place. It’s now illegal for any couple to have a child,
because every child since has been born in a coma. The governments want people to wait to have children until they can figure out what exactly is
going on. The children who fell into a coma, now aged 19, all have daily seizures at 10:00pm for exactly 1 minute, that is, until one night, a nurse,
doing her nightly rounds, finds all of the children standing beside their beds, staring straight at her. The coma teenagers all over the world are now
walking the streets, breaking into homes and killing parents in cold blood, as if they’re all possessed by demons. Can the governments, doctors,
scientists or the remaining parents find the cure for this disease or will they all suffer a gruesome bloody death by the hands of their love ones.
Clive Barker's name was mentioned on the front of this movie, although this isn't a true Clive Baker film, he was just the producer, nothing more or
less. The Plague started off strong and then slowly started to go to shit, we don't even find out what exactly caused the kids to fall into a coma?
The ending just left me pissed off and angry cause I was hoping to see something like Children of the Corn meets Village of the Damned, but
nooooo we are left with a heart warming ending. For an hour and a half I seen these kids tear apart parents like it was a sequel to a zombie film,
shit I even thought maybe they were coma zombies for a minute, then I thought maybe they were possessed or even aliens had something to do
with it. Fuck me, I couldn't figure out why they did what they did, all I know is they need to re-shoot the ending and tell us the reason why this shit
happened, if not, The Plague is just going to be a shitty lame ass ending film, and to make it look like it was a Clive Baker film makes me sick in the
guts.
If you’re into films like Children of the Corn and The Village of the Damned, and you haven't anything else to watch well hunt this down, it has
every entertaining plot and the gore is really sweet, but just prepare yourself for a cheesy fucked up ending. Otherwise, I warn you to keep your
money and buy or rent something else.
